and Other Matters.
One swallow may not be of sufficient
pathological importance TO make sum-
mer, but one snow storm sometimes gives
one all he wants Of winter, especially if he
is s poor clerk and she is as dear to him as
the sleigh is TO the liveryman.
1t is now time for that Devonian pun,
"Is snow use" to appear in the slush
column.
At this time OF year, when the ground is
covered with the purest emblem Of
Winter, one can almost smell the Christ
mas turkey cooking.
Winter, it seems, pays the most earnest
attention to the nose of the n temper
ance advocate.
The lost as we'll rs the saved backslide
at this season of the year, but sometimes
one GETS up to slide no more, and the
other slides to get up no more.
1t is not the largest body that makes the
most noise in falling. A woman who slips
on an iron cellar door will brighten a po-
~licelnan from bis beat.
Iwoald just rs lief pass a masked bat
terry as a crowd of wicked urchins congre-
gated OF a corner or q snowy day.
1t is g wise SNOWFALL that knows VINO

Ii you have any desire to study chsrac-
ter and human nature, you should visit
the markets. Here you meet all sorts OF
people, in al conditions in life, displaying
all sorts OF characteristics. The women

Some come IN zeal skin sacks, come in
silks and some in calico. The farmer,
whose existence is not 4 summer joke,
wakes from his dream OF selling 0O.cent
potatoes for 81, to he asked by a prime
miss for u te@ sprig' Of celery, because she
thinks il vulgar to use the commercial term
OF bunch. Such young ladies generally at
terd market because it has become q sort
of fad in their set. ] once knew n young
lady to buy Il couple OF live chickens and
carry them home wrapped up IN brown

during The exercises attending the open
ing Of the branch railroad to New Cumber-
land, Mayor Seabright was called on TO
speak fog Wheeling. The j0vill Mayor
commenced li3 sreech by saying: "On
behalf Of the city of Wheeling" Just at
this point Il citizen,of the Nail City, who is
something OF \ wag. aud who, | believe,
was in tlvor OF making the Office 4 saiaried
One, leaned over and whispered in the ear
Of another Wheeling man, And whose I'M
paid representative | am OF course the
Mayor did not hear it but kept right OF
with his speech. Speaking Of the Mayor,
reminds me that he is making n good Off
Ger. Always careful of the city's interests
be tempers the enforcement of the laws
with mercy. He is kind aud just 10 the
lowest as well as to the highest. / have
known him TO dn rnany acts thai show the
sympathetic side of his nature, and that
would reflect credit on the judgment Of the
highest official in the land.
I am told that a Wheeling gentleman of
a literary turn gathered materials for 4
veIy pathetic story, and that the story is
now in type, hut i: is TO be Withheld from
the public until after the holidays. The
title OF the book il. The Mysteries Of
Mince Meat; or, the Lost Found-A True
Story of a Missing Dog"
